Flexibility. Most people work all
week, with perhaps one or two days off over the weekend. Most receive
one to two weeks of vacation per year. As a flight attendant, you have
the ability to group your flights together in a given month, and have
1-2 weeks off every month! And that is in addition to your regular
vacation time. You can use this free time to utilize your travel
benefits, continue your education, or run your own business.
Variety. Since you are able
to move your schedule around to suit your personal life, you are also
able to escape the nine-to-five, Monday through Friday drudgery. And
each flight is to a different city, with different crews, and different
passengers. It's very hard to get bored.
Travel. Most airline employees receive passes to fly on their own airline
for free, or for a small fee. In addition, other airlines will offer you
50-75% discounts on their tickets. Hotels, rental cars, cruises, tour
packages all have some discount schedule for airline employees also. Put
it all together, and you have the flexibility to travel to a variety of
places, at an extremely low cost. How could anyone not want to be an
airline flight attendant?
